B.C. Rich Is Officially Back!! || Mockingbird Extreme Evertune Demo/Review

[@agufish]

FYI, according to what's trending on Twitter, today is National Horny Day. You're welcome, that's your quarantine fact for the day.

[@maffooo2040]

This guitar fits with today

[@thedanksavatron7782]

My first guitar I learn to play on is a mockingbird! There will always be a place in my collection for one! 🎅

[@misterblack6521]

Bindings ugly. Volume and switches in the way.

[@moot_cs]

You can't say you've truly "experienced" a B.C. Rich until you've pretended to use one as a medieval weapon.

[@bluecollarjay2959]

Deathlock approves that comment

[@toddwilliams8128]

Fun fact: If you remove the neck from a warlock, you can use it as an oversized shuriken. Perfect for killing dinosaurs. Also, when you retrieve it and replace the neck, it keeps its tone. That said, haven't had the chance to try a similar thing with neck-through build.

[@alejandrobautista1605]

Totally agree with your point

[@infinidominion]

I put a zebra wood pickup ring on a Draco and it's so fitting😅

[@lord_Errykson]

Lol hunter thinks this guitar is “too” pointy. Have you seen B.C. Rich’s other guitars this one seems like a Les Paul compare to those 😂😂

[@Malum09]

Erik Gomez oh yeah, they get pointier

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

Like the Ironbird, Draco, Virgo, Ignitor, Virgin, Wave, Zombie, Warlock, Warbeast and Beast. I love my Warbeast.

Big stivert - That would be B.C Rich gunslinger. It’s a super-strat.

@CelestialEnchantments 432 thats true, but i kinda forget about them, cuz i am not a big fan of superstart, but bc rich`s ones shreddzillas looks so fucking cool tho

Eagle is pretty usually kind of PRS.

[@user-pl7lr5dn8q]

the eagle did come out way before prs was a thing

[@opecno8108]

The thing about BC Rich is they keep their shapes a certain way so they can be weapons when the next revolution happens, it takes "get me my axe" to a whole new level.

[@nathanielcava4128]

OPEC no you’ll have to use one next time you buy toilet paper

[@BABing-pv5xq]

Bill Xavier is a good guy. I’ve chatted with him before. He’s really active with the player base. There was an incident a month or so ago where. One of the new warlocks found its way to a guitar center with some flaws in the binding. Bill personally called the GC to get it pulled from the shelf and called the customer that discovered the guitar personally to apologize. He’s a solid guy.

[@vampeiyre]

Damn, that's impressive.

[@TheRustedShackleford]

He seems to really love the company and is actually qualified to bring it back to glory. He was VP of Peavey for years and handled all of the EVH stuff.

[@ibanez2010]

Smart move by BC Rich to pay you to review this. I had completely written off BC Rich, but this is something I would be interested in. Awesome to hear they are made at WMI!

[@jamesh6535]

I did the pre-order and got the Extreme Jr V with a Floyd and it's brilliant. Plays great and looks great. My guitar teacher immediately asked for first dibs if I ever consider selling it.

[@Killahead.]

Yeah I always felt that the Mockingbird was their answer to the Les Paul. Lots of their shapes seem to be metal versions of classics. The Virgin is the SG, the Beast is the Explorer, the Mockingbird is the Les Paul, etc. So if you're used to a certain body shape, you might enjoy the BC Rich equivalent

[@keshin_martin]

I’ve NEVER been this early!! Already hit like before watching. LET’S GOOO

[@dustinroberts5949]

I was really feeling your intro jam for this video, that was your best work yet IMO! I really appreciate your transparency, honesty, and unbiased opinions. Thanks for kicking so much ass!

[@1973starling]

This is the first time since the late 80’s that i feel like BC Rich would be a guitar I would want!! This is bar far thickest and warmest sound i have heard on any of your demos. I was shocked!! Great review.. looking for to the PRS S2 MCCarty .🤘🏻

[@todddavis5433]

If you played guitar in the 80's you had to have a B.C. Rich...hands down the most metal guitar ever. I have six of them lol

[@killsing01]

It's good to see BC Rich has returned from obscurity to once again compete in the rock market. Iconic guitars for sure. But they are a long way from Bernie Rico's original vision for the company, BUT, in my opinion they are headed in the right direction!

[@Malum09]

From what I’ve seen, the metal scene in the 80’s was dominated by B.C. Rich and Kramer guitars, with Charvel and Jackson and Ibanez in second place

[@benjaminsierralta7423]

Take a shot everytime he says "pointy"

[@gsharpe84]

Great review. I own 3 2019 BCRs. Two of them are the actual guitars on the BCR and vendor site because I bought the preproduction models. I own the Extreme Exotic Jr. V and Prophecy Shredzilla w/ Evertune. It's really cool seeing pics if my guitars all over the world. Lastly, I own a Legacy Exotic Stealth.

[@luca7x689]

I think the shiny abalone binding is a thing of the 2000's and early 2010's. I personally don't like it. But the specs are legit

[@alexcarvalho4274]

Yeah, is like too much for my taste

[@evenzeroescanbeheroes6875]

That might be why ESP has been shying away from that one their newer 1000 series LTD models

[@n1ghtmar3mach1n3]

The Legacy Series won't have it.

[@PoGoX7]

Exactly my thought...

[@SrDeMaFp]

It’s outstayed its welcome years ago. It’s never looked good. I’ll pass on this one.

If Gibson isn't so hellbent on keeping their cashcow Slash, the world needs an actual Slash signature Mockingbird. They posted on their IG story a while back he was taking new ones on the road with him, and I noticed that the post was mysteriously taken down after a few hours.

[@suitsandstrings55]

The Mockingbird ST is basically his signature. Pretend it stands for Slash Tribute.

[@aldahirlopez3757]

Maybe an "inspired by this Rockstar which we cannot say their Name but used to play our guitars" just to avoid legal drama from Gibson

I have seen him play either a Mockingbird or a Bich every time I have seen him live.

[@SnuffleZeTruffle]

There’s an entire generation of players .... generally under 30, that have no idea that BC Rich guitars like the Bich, Mockingbird, Eagle, Wave...even the earliest Warlocks and Stealthswere NOT designed for “Metal”. They were made for all genres and used in all genres. It was on the late 80s that the “Metal” heads like Slayer and all the black metal started taking them on. But before that “Rock, Pop, New Wave, Blues, Funk, Jazz ... etc...all used them. This is a good video, but why are the demo’s all they detuned “buzz metal”stuff.

I just played a few of these at GC earlier today and I can say these are probably some of the best set-up floyd rose equipped guitars I've played in a WHILE. I've been a fan of the mockinbird body shape for a minute (thanks to Hide from X Japan) and really am considering getting one of these. I just wish they also did these with the classic headstock as well.

Oh man, give me that guitar without the abalone and in flamed burst red like the one slash used back in the days and I'm sold. BTW, have you seen the new Amarok series from Harley Benton? Especially the 7strings. Man those specs for 599€ is extremely tempting. Maybe we see a demo of one of those 7 strings 😬😬. Anyways back to the bc rich demo, man awesome as always. And that you made that disclosure made it just even better. Good for you to get more than just those 3$ bucks from KZbin😂 Edit: just saw that they had that in trans red burst. If only the abalone would be gone 😒

Been Playing BC Rich since 1985, my first was a 1978 Mockingbird. I also have a 1980 Bich. Still have both. Nice to see they are finally making quality guitars again.

[@PNWGuitar]

I love this guitar so much. I had a mock9ngbird for a short time and loved it but THIS is what I've been looking for.

[@bobbyhansford4804]

As of 4 ~ 5 yrs now , the original mockingbird was named the best guitar design of all time. Lucky for me , im waiting on a new trans black mock legacy ( absolutely beautiful and flawless in craftsmanship and over all a very high quality build ) If it didn't say Korea on the back , you would diffantly believe this was an American or Japanese high end guitar. Im 54 yrs old and the guitar i always wanted ~ no not a Gibson or Fender , but a true B.C. Rich Bich in Dragons Blood. I have a 6 month wait on it ~ but 6 months compared wanting one for 50 yrs .. Im good and a high quality Mockingbird is on its way ( unsure how to show pics ) but absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately don't see my Gibson's getting much playing time anymore.. But if your looking for an original 70's series , since 2019 B.C. Rich is no doubt the best on the market. I've bought high end Ibanez ( Indonesia made along with ESP ) i don't have neither from the 1st month buying them and there not missed. Also the cost was more for a $1600 u.s. Ibanez than my Mockingbird or Bich at $1399.00 u.s. , but they just went up to $1,499 ~ the new pro B.C. Rich hardshell case for $269.00 ~ buy it !

This and the Bich are probably some of my all time favorite guitars

[@breevwhyman2985]

yes, the thing about FLUENCE is like you say, they can be "tuned" to match different types pf pickups.....so you are really getting a couple of sets of pickups (at least) maybe even 3 sets (granted, fluence are quite expensive but it's cancelled out by the tuning feature) You can really hear the difference when the Fluence's are tuned a particular way. Sure there are pedals that can do this kind of stuff but having the actual pickup do it right at source ...............must be way better. Storming guitar, i love the evertune and can't wait for them to reduce it's Size (they are working on making the evertune smaller) It's a very high quality guitar ........it's an out and out winner. It looks fantastic. yeah, the quality speaks volumes. THey are mixing with the best by releasing a guitar like that. They are kind of making a statement that they DO NOT do things by halves. Congratulations to a brand that sat in the wings for many years and was swamped by competitors. Anyhow.....thanks V
